Herbal Treatment For Fatty Liver Disease

A fatty liver is the result of accumulation of excess fat in the liver cells. Fatty tissue slowly builds up in the liver, on account of excess amount of fat in a person's diet. A person is said to have a fatty liver, when fat makes up at least 5-10% of the liver. Simple fatty liver does not lead to liver damage. But, once there is a buildup of fat, the liver becomes vulnerable to further injury and may result in inflammation. Globally, millions of people are addicted to alcohol and more than 90% of these people develop fatty livers. It has been reported that fatty liver can occur after drinking moderate or large amounts of alcohol. The other factors for developing alcoholic fatty liver disease include infection due to Hepatitis C, an overload of iron, obesity and diet. On the other hand, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease is now the most common cause of chronic liver disease. People with excess fat in the liver simply have a fatty liver.


According to current data, more than 50% of people are overweight and it is further estimated that 75% of these individuals are at risk of developing a fatty liver. Symptoms of fatty liver indicate that the liver is damaged. In the damaged liver, liver cells and the entire liver become saturated with fat causing the liver to become slightly enlarged and heavier in size. The patients suffer from dull pain in the right upper abdominal area. Other symptoms may include a constant feeling of fatigue and weakness, nausea, jaundiced skin, flatulence, high cholesterol, high blood pressure and an inability to lose weight. Since fatty liver is a slow developing disease, and eventually it can lead to liver inflammation, liver cancer, complete liver failure and even death in some severe cases.


There are no conventional means to repair or reverse the damage caused on account of fatty liver. Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease wasn't considered a serious health hazard, but today it affects a majority of people worldwide. Reports further indicate that more than 80-90% of sufferers will develop a significant form of liver disease, and it could even progress to liver cirrhosis. This is a very serious condition of liver and medical professionals are engaged in extensive research so as to find a suitable treatment and also to find out the actual root cause of the problem. The chemotherapeutic drugs associated with treating a fatty liver come with heavy costs. Some of these drugs include cholesterol lowering drugs which can exert toxic side-effects on the liver cells.


There is a more advanced approach that suggests a specially developed diet as a precise treatment for fatty liver. The main aim is to cleanse the inner system and boost the body's immune system. This diet provides the body with the necessary materials to actually reverse the accumulated fat in the liver and begin its normal functioning. However, the treatment of fatty liver generally depends only if implemented at an early stage.


The treatment of fatty liver is more related to its cause. Avoiding or eliminating use of alcohol can improve fatty liver and due to alcohol toxicity. Also, control of blood sugar may reduce the severity of fatty liver in patients suffering from diabetes.


As per Ayurveda, natural treatment comprises of herbs and these herbal remedies help to detoxify the liver. The herbal treatment of fatty liver varies from person to person and depends on the severity of the condition. As the liver cleanses out toxins from the body, the herbal remedies help to detoxify the liver and prevent it from malfunctioning. The other steps to fatty liver cure include modification of lifestyle and diet. Most ayurvedic physicians recommend a well-balanced vegetarian diet as the most suitable diet plan for reversing the symptoms of fatty liver.
